The Living Death Of Palestine

clipped from www.powerlineblog.com This is exactly backward. Of all the twisted and corrupt Arab cultures, the most dysfunctional, by far, is that of the Palestinians. This is because, for more than a half-century now, the Palestinians have been used by their fellow Arabs and Muslims as political tools. Abetted by the United Nations, the Palestinians' fellow Arabs have kept them living in "refugee" camps for generations. The Palestinians' commitment to terrorism has made it impossible for them to develop a functioning economy. Their educational system is a joke, dedicated mostly to perpetuating the same pathologies that have made the West Bank and Gaza among the world's most miserable places. If Israel were to disappear tomorrow, the Palestinians' pathetic situation would not improve an iota. If anything, it would get worse.
